Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? . . . No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
~Romans 8:35, 38-39

Josiah's first day of K5!

Josiah started kindergarten today! Ms. Lou came over to stay with Caleb & Carissa so that Chris and I could both walk Josiah to school. Josiah did great. He went right in and we had to ask him to say goodbye to us. I was teary-eyed but determined not to cry because I had to go talk to the nurse about his asthma meds and I didn't want to be bawling when I went in the nurse's office.

Here is a picture of Josiah comforting Caleb because he was upset about Josiah leaving him to go to school. (Caleb will start K3 in 2 weeks.)
After I walked Josiah home from school we looked at the folder in his backpack which is supposed to have any notes to the parents or homework assignments in it. He was disappointed to learn that he did not have any homework the first day! He said he wanted to learn more.

When I was young my mom (and dad) always got my brother and me a cake on the first day of school with our grade on it. So, I decided to continue the tradition. Here is Josiah with his K5 cake! He chose Carrot Cake. I couldn't find my kindergarten pic but here is my 1st grade pic.
